Well, after a few failed attempts to get away for some 'time out' by myself , it now feels very close to a fresh start happening again.
I have just returned home to Adelaide from Sydney with a wonderful  Mercedes Benz Campervan. The internal fit out is as if I had planned it myself. The unit is as new, 59,000km, and the journey home on petrol returned 11litres per 100 kms @ 90-95kph.
A couple of luxury items are the electric water pump for the sink and remote shower unit. A huge wind out free standing annexe with an insider and outside table. I can see myself now, sitting back, feet up and doing absolutely nothing. Heck, it'd going to be a hard task in learning how to slow down and let myself catch up.
OK..enough of that teasing now.  Back to washing off the bugs  from the trip and start an inventory of goodies to pack and memorise where I have placed them in the amazing places available in the design.
So, won't be long now before I start a new chapter of the book of living.

Who's a flash chap then. A merc of all things. You will need to book early for a good place at the Melbourne Cup 2009. Do not worry, not much tea drunk there, but you bottle storage will need to be up to scratch!!
